Cheers Scartlead!
I have used a very thin foam backed carpet on parts of the walls and on the rear seating area (I call it my thrown  ). I have used carpet... as this hides any imperfections in the wall, It's very easy to apply, cost effective and looks great!

Hey,
I've been watching the Bat Barn thread since the start... that's gonna be a cracking room mate! Can't wait to see the end result.

Hi andicapped,
Thank you for your comments
The screen size is 6 ft (wide) this includes the black boarder. The distance from the screen to the front row (back of seat) is 7 1/2ft and the distance to back row is 11ft.
I hope this helps and I'm sure you can create the cinema of your dreams if you put your all/mind into it!
If you ever need any help just ask
Take it easy

Re: K&N Cinema build
Having checked out your pictures, I have to say this really looks like a masterclass in creating a fantastic home cinema in a small space. How did the acoustic treatments work out for you? Any issues you've not been able to solve?

Re: K&N Cinema build
BOOMERANGBUBB, did you paint the acoustics tiles or just leave them their natural colour (grey)?
